GREENE TOWNSHIP.

GEEENoPoLIs, Nov. 30.-Some interest
Ing figures Of the 1884 campaign: The dem
ocratic vote for Cleveland in the northern
states was 5.194.s3 in southern states.
l,1i6. 1873; the democratic vote in the north
cru democratic states WAS ,. 59l 09S. which
elected 66 electoral votes. while |. Tl6, l4S
votes in the southern states elected l53
electorals; or 1t took 9aa. 955 more
demrOcatic votes TO elect the
former than the latter l53
The southern electorals received
l1,2l6 votes each. while the 24S northern
electorais of both parties received 81, ,062
votes each. The basis of the electoral is
one for 80, 900. Where was the other
~. .OG0 Oh election day in the northern
states? The number OF republican votes in
democratic states was = 2i6, 09i and the
number of votes in republican
states was 2.509, 33I. This hg-
urinx is from democratic statement. q. d.
Why is II that every judge and clerk that is
appointed or elected receives fes for his
work And the clerk Of the court also has
his fees. and Is bound to make his returns
of the election within certain time, and
the law requires these returns to be certi-
fed to by two justices of the peace, and
there is no law compelling any justice to
serve In taking the abstract of the vote.
Why should the last act Of our elections be
less guarded than the rest? Compensate
these last, and then the clerk can execute
the law when he calls on any justice.

There is one sensible Englishman-a mar
of great ability-s prominent journalist
who frankly talks this way about the prin
ciple of protection:
L am no fanatical free trader; am one
geographically. If / had been an Ameri-
can l should have been a prctectiOnist.
Being an Englishmsn ! am a free trader
II l were Canadian | Should advocate 2
customs union with the United States, a.
though. as an Epgiishmau. L should be
sorry IL this unicn were effected. The mis-
take of political economy is TO suppose that
il is based on principles of universal appli-
cation. Ny reason. as an Englishman. fer
being q free trader is not aDy theoretical
admiration Of flee trade. but because we
should lose more than We should gain by
protection.
The author Of the foregoing is Mr.. Henry
Labouchere. editor and owner OF the Lon
don Truth, an influential weekly; one of
the editors and owners of one Of the great
London dailies. and leading Liberal
members of the house Of commons, so that
be may be considered as representative
Engiishman. The great moral airs put on
BY free traders in this country and in
Europe are knocked out totally, by this
frank, sensible and authoritative utterance
When il becomes profitable to the English
people to sdopt fair trade or protection they
viii adopt II. and when il shall become
prsdtable to Americans to adopt free trade.

shall have it, II is not q matter of morals
but Of proit to our people. 1t is not q
matter for mere theorists. but for practical

The Toledo Commercial agrees with our
often-eXpressed opinion that the national
republican convention should be held al
Cincinnati. The Music hall is as convenient
for great convention purposes as IL it were
